The purpose of this program is to share recent applied research results from northern California on the: 1) quality of water in pasture and rangeland runoff, streams and rivers, and the Sacramento/San Joaquin Delta, 2) potential risks range and pasture management pose to water quality and management options to reduce these risks; and 3) use of vegetative filter strips and wetlands to clean-up agricultural runoff. Provide practical management options to protect water quality, and comply with water quality regulatory programs.
Anyone interested in water quality, range, and pasture management would benefit from this program. This includes livestock/range/pasture managers, agricultural water quality coalitions, agricultural and environmental advocacy organizations, irrigation districts, resource conservation districts, municipal water districts, water quality regulatory agencies, natural resources management and conservation organizations, and environmental consulting firms among others.
There is no charge for this workshop.
